| Abstract | The idea of a group of coordinated UAVs able to adaptively react to their environment and learn about their surroundings while following either an individual or a communal agenda is an intriguing corollary to familiar images from the animal kingdom: packs of wolves or lions hunting for prey, bees surveying a field in search for food and building complex structures out of a myriad of simple but cooperative behaviors. Achieving such a degree of control and producing such sophisticated behavior remains an elusive goal that presents considerable challenges due to the inherent complexity of the task, and also because it may be approached from a variety of different angles. In this paper we present a possible solution to this problem that is based on the idea of surrogate optimization to adaptively identify a terrain map on-line and use it to produce decentralized controllers yielding UAV trajectories in a coordinated manner. Our results indicate that the approach results in a feasible method yielding significantly better results than exhaustive search and random search, which we use as baselines for comparison. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
